A four-year-old girl whose motorbike was stolen from her home in an early morning raid has offered to buy it back off thieves with the money in her piggy bank.

The burglars cut through floodlight cables and broke into motorcyclist Joshua Crewe's shed on Monday, April 10 to steal three Kawasaki off-road bikes.

Mr Crewe, who lives with his mother in Webb Lane, Tetbury, believes they were hiding in the garden and rolled the bikes onto his drive after 5am when he left to go to work.

His ex-partner, Megan Tunnicliffe, told Gloucestershire Live there were two vehicles parked on the driveway overnight that blocked the thieves' exit.

The mother-of-two added that Mr Crewe, a sponsored motor cross rider who competes semi-professionally, drove past a white transit van parked in the cul-de-sac. She claimed it could have belonged to the getaway driver.
